MetaDimension Printmanager CIP3 Interface upgrade

[TYson L]

Hi,
I'm planning to install 2 new Heidelberg presses (4up and 8up) with CIP3. However my agent had told me that It requires to upgrade my current Printmanager in order to include these 2 new presses. Currently this Printmanager is handling 2 (4up) presses SM74 & CD74.

1. Do I have to upgrade my Printmanager to include 2 new presses?
2. New upgrade will incur new subscription as charging per metre square? Is it true?

Please advise.
Thank you.

Hi TYson L,

If a solution beyond Heidelberg subscriptions is required, I can only recommend the MAC-only application PressPerCent.

Is there a way to receive PPF file from the Press console without passing through the Printmanager or a CIP 3controller?
In the past, could be done by transferring PPF files from an USB drive
